Isaac Chansa has been recalled by Patrice Beaumelle for Zambia’s monthly domestic players training camp that began on Monday in Lusaka.
Chansa returns to the fold for the first time since lifting the 2012 Africa Cup in Gabon.
The Zanaco midfielder has made a stunning return to form for the FAZ Super Division club after a twelve month break due to injury.
Chansa on Sunday scored a brace in only his third outing for Zanaco this season to inspire them to a 4-0 home win over promoted Indeni in a match he started and played the first 70 minutes.
“I watched him at Sunset Stadium and you know he did not play for a long time but I saw him yesterday (Sunday) he scored two goals but apart from just scoring he had a good game and played very well,” Beaumelle said.
Meanwhile, Chansa was not the only high profile players at training on Monday.
Joseph Musonda, William Njoibvu and Hichani Himonde were all in attendance.
Now you are talking…. we enjoy soccer from today on. Chansa & Joseph are best players in Chipolopolo
WERE OR ARE STILL BEST PLAYERS? COME ON AND BE SERIOUS! NOTHING PERSONAL AGAINST MR. CHANSA AND MR. MUSONDA BUT THAT THEIR PLAYING CURVES MUST SURELY BE DROPPING AND WE ARE USING THEM PROBABLY TO BRING IN THEIR EXPERIENCES. THERE ARE NUMBER OF VERY TALENTED YOUNG PLAYERS IN THE LEAGUES IN ZAMBIA BUT THE PROBLEMS WE HAVE ARE TWO-FOLD: INDISCIPLINE AND LACK OF COMMITMENT FROM PLAYERS AND QUALITY OF SOME OF THE LOCAL COACHES. HOW ON EARTH CAN A COACH WHO SITS ON THE BENCH AND ALWAYS ON TOUCH LINE SAY HIS TEAM LOST BECAUSE HIS PLAYERS DID NOT PLAY ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS WHILE ANOTHER TERMING A DRAW A “FAIR” RESULT?
TO FAZ: CAN YOU PLEASE PROPOSE TO FIFA A CHANGE IN ONE OF THE RIDICULOUS FOOTBALL RULES? HOW CAN A PLAYER WHO IS ON THE FIELD PLAYING BE SAID TO BE “INTERFERING WITH…
You have not watched the rest.
Though we support him as a coach , I really feel he should do much to discover new talent and fuse them into chipolopolo main squad. Chansa and other old guns were discovered a long time and its time forn them to play a supporting role to the young guns .
Joseph & Chansa are good players-Its a good move
let us have new players not these tired legs.
